Recording apparatus and temperature detecting method therefor

摘要

Recording in a recording apparatus is controlled according to the temperature of a recording head. The temperature of the recording head and the surrounding temperature around the recording head are detected. An offset value, based on the temperature of the recording head and the surrounding temperature, is set at a predetermined timing. The detected temperature of the recording head is corrected, based on the offset value. The offset value is renewed, based on the head temperature and the surrounding temperature, during repetition of detection of the head temperature.
